It was an honor for several of our ZooTampa team members to participate in the Great American Teach-In via Zoom and in person with several Hillsborough, Pinellas, and Pasco County Public and Private schools this year! We presented to over 7K students about many of the career options that are available at a conservation organization.
Currently, we are securing speakers and finalizing the date of the November 2023 Virtual Great American Teach-In.
If you are interested in participating, please fill out the “Invite ZooTampa to Your School Form” and a team member will contact you through email the first week of November.
